Ravens’ Humphrey has virus; Packers also have a case
Baltimore Ravens All-Pro cornerback Marlon Humphrey says he has tested positive for the coronavirus.
In a post on Twitter, Humphrey wrote Monday: “I got the Rona hopefully I’ll be back healthy soon.”
Humphrey missed practice last Wednesday with what the team described as an “illness” but returned Thursday and played in Sunday’s 28-24 loss to Pittsburgh.
The Ravens confirmed Monday that a player tested positive for COVID-19, but did not release the name of the individual.
The Green Bay Packers on Monday also sent out a release that said a player tested positive. According to multiple reports, that player is running back AJ Dillon.
The Browns, meanwhile, announced that they are conducting their football meetings remotely on Monday.
The team said: “This morning, an active player who has not been in the facility today reported that he is experiencing COVID-19 related symptoms. While there have been no positive test results among players, coaches or staff members, the team decided to host meetings remotely to exercise the appropriate level of caution.”
